BREAKING THE SILENCE

A nice soothing photo of the river at one of my favorite places Burney Falls in McArthur Burney Falls State Park.

I apologize for my silence of late but a good deal of changes have occurred on the farm in the last few weeks. And the one of most impact is large. I will be dropping in from time to time to do a "normal" post or update on my husbands new battle with the "C" word. Some of you may have known from the blog before this that my husband has danced with Chronic Lymphatic Leukemia since July of 2012.

We now know that he is out of remission and we are scrambling to get some more finite diagnosis and then learn of our choices for a treatment plan. I don't mind sharing as I hope that I can offer someone comfort by knowing that they and the one they love aren't dancing this dance alone. There are multitudes of families such as ours. But in the same token when the next new normal comes into focus I will be posting about the beauty, love and fun of life. This blog will not become one large pity party.

So with that said we are off to surgery tomorrow to get more info as to exactly what is going on. I hope you all can forgive my sporadic disappearing acts and stick around to see what is new and exciting as summer morphs into fall here at the farm.

About Me

I am a native Californian old enough to remember when the Golden State lived up to her name. I live on 42 acres off the grid with one husband, a Border Collie/ Aussie cross Cali, an English Setter Ari, two Great Pyrenees Sherman and Yarrow who live with our LaMancha dairy goats and keep them from harms way. Toss in a few chickens, a yearly garden well you get the picture. Also have two adult children and 4 incredible grand girls. I am also a spinner, weaver, knitter and occasional quilter.
